Ok....kinda spoke out of line..
Donno how or why, but here is the thing....
I got a vrigin leo (that's gonna change in a hurry) when I turn on hotspot I can't see it on my cm10 flashed tablet.
But the stock hotspot from my wifes samsung ace I can see and connect with...

So it looks to me like the whole "no adhoc in jelly" applies from all things microsoft.

Not sure how Microsoft got anything to do with it. Cm7+ supported Adhoc connections while cm9 and cm10 does not.
Also adhoc does not only mean connect to a 'hotspot' but simply have a wireless connection between 2 devices thru wifi (without a router) to exchange files, stream music.....etc.
Its not supported on any stock Android rom but there were ways of archiving it in earlier versions of Android so adhoc networks showed up under your available wifi networks.
I haven't heard it working on any JB Tom's yet....

Ok i might have mis understood the topic here....
I have a d90w wich i reflashed to jellybean.(cm10)
When i reflased it i coudnt connect to adhoc wifi from my htc hd2.
Once i reflashed my hd2 to ics 4.0.4 (cm9) and i setup a wifi hotspot on it i could connect my tablet again without any probs.

So havn't tryed to setup an adhoc on a jellybean divice, but have noticed its a bit more picky when connecting
